What is investing ? Investment is the process of spending your money in an asset with the objective to grow your money . When you sell back , you expect an additional profit over the initial spending . You may invest in gold , silver , platinum , real estate , stocks , mutual funds , deposits and various other financial instruments . Primary object is to grow your money .

​While your purpose is to grow your asset , can you relax after investing? Are you not afraid of market fall or price depreciation ? How can you relax when your money is sunk in the asset ? Can you remain calm and quiet without any worry ?

How to remove the objective of growing money from the process of investing ?

Out of your earnings ( Say A ) , you spend on essentials needed to carry on with your life ( Say B ) and also on activities or goods called luxuries which are not needed , but enhance the quality of life ( Say C ) . You may purchase a bigger car or a big mansion . You may go out on an overseas trip . it can be small luxury like weekend outing or just restaurant visit . You spend money in these categories of luxury spending and you do not expect any return of money . Your money is well spent if you enjoy the activity . You may save and invest the balance of your excess of income over expenditure by creating the assets ( Say D )

So A = B+C+ D .

While spending on essentials is constant B , C and D can be varied according to one 's goals . While a person X who wants to enjoy life may spend more on C and reduce the allocation D . A person Y who is more interested in future , may reduce the expenditure on C and enhance investment D .

X can still be worried about his low investments . While Y will not have present day luxury , he would also be worried of the future of D as the future value is uncertain .

So now the question is how to make the present more happy while keeping the future more secured ?

All investments you do will be within your luxury budget which you have earmarked for losing .
